"Where have you been Swift?" Well, let me answer some of that for you all.

Alright. Been a bit inactive on here but I suppose it's time for a few updates!

One major thing that's kept me from here and my other media places is a family medical issue.

I'll start with the not so good news first.
Last month, my mom went to the doctors and was told that things didn't look too good. So when we found out that she might have a dangerous health condition, I drove down to Mississippi and spent nearly a month with my family. Helping out with doctors appointments, helping my lil sister with her homework, and helping my brother with collecting his things from his ex wife's home.
My mom's health condition has been weighing heavy on my mind since the doctors haven't told her anything helpful yet. I even went into the appointment with her and try still weren't able to share much with us regarding her health or anything that the tests were for that they were doing. I'm back in New York now, just got back last week actually. And I found out that they're having to do infusions with my mom. They're 5 hour sessions, about 3-4 times a week. Still not hearing from the doctors what these treatments are for. And we are still being kept in the dark. I know these treatments are supposed to help. But I still can't help but to worry and be concerned about it too. Only time will tell I suppose.

let's end with something positive!
I've been trying to learn more art techniques. And getting back to my roots by doing a bit of fanart. So I'm trying to hone skills I used to have a long time ago, and bring them into my art again.
October is coming up, and I plan on participating in Inktober. A sketch every day for the entire month. That's something I'm really looking forward to. I'm hoping to do a Halloween theme for all my art in October.
Some things helping me keep my spirits through all this family medical issues have been art and some video games. I played Diablo twice in the past month. Need to do that again. And Pokémon has been a good distraction too. Whether it be Pokémon moon or Pokémon go. It's been a good way to keep my mind occupied. I'm totally looking towed to Pokémon ultra sun and moon too.

So that's pretty much the just of it really. Sorry for the somewhat depressing update. But I still have high hopes and I'm accepting all the positive thoughts I can in this time of confusion and stress. But I'm still gonna be sending out my own positive thoughts to those of you who need them too!

Thanks for hanging in there with me. I hope to be posting some new content soon! So keep a lookout for my daily Inktober uploads starting in about a week! ^\\\\^

Everyone have a fantastic day and have a good week. And don't forget to wake those people up when September ends too!

Take care all!

Your friendly neighborhood Husky,
Swift <3
